This ebook is available in PDF format and can be viewed on any device that supports the file format. It has been optimized for tablet reading. All topics are relevant for modern digital PEN and OM-D cameras. Camera button layouts and available options vary amongst models, but this information will still be applicable for the most part. You just may not be able to utilize everything all at once if you use an E-PL5 versus an E-M10 for example. (and obviously no viewfinder on the former for example…) This book was written with an E-M1 as the basis. Some items have shifted slightly on the E-M1mkII but are still relevant. Nothing has proven to be so different that a second edition is necessary yet. If and when I expand or streamline for the next generation of cameras, a free update will be sent to all my current readers that have purchased. If you have any questions feel free to contact me!
